your one stop update on what happened last week on Canada's Coronation Street...
So let me get this straight.
Dev thinks that's Aadi's problems stem from a lack of fatherly love and support... so the solution is to provide even less fatherly love and support - by shipping Aadi off to Mumbai.
Huh.
Dev's strange solution comes after Aadi finally confesses the whole extent of his misdeeds (large business losses, fake robbery, crazy party and, finally, the unfortunate drug incident involving Lauren).
The whole Aadi situation puts a damper on the Dev/Bernie wedding at the Bistro - but not as much as Bernie's sudden illness and breathing problems (the result of allergies caused by the bridal bouquet). Fortunately the couple overcomes this minor hiccup and enters into marital bliss - despite the fact that Bernie covered up Aadi's debts, tried to skim off wedding money to cover Aadi's debts, and tried to get Brody hired to run Dev's fish and chip shop).
One bright light for Aadi is the fact that he and Amy finally get together. All is peachy until Lauren decides to tell police that Aadi spiked her drink at that fateful party. This prompts Lauren to confront Aadi about his lies and duplicity which then causes Amy to doubt Aadi's integrity and honesty.
Meanwhile, over at the builders yard, Theo decides to do a little violent re-arranging of tools and equipment as he rages over Noah and how he ruined his life and usurped his family. Gary is sympathetic to Theo's plight and vows to teach Noah a lesson but is interrupted but the unexpected arrival of Maria.
Over at cringe-worthy love central (aka Steve and Cassie), Steve urges Cassie to let him stay at the home of Ty and Fiz. This after Steve moves out of Ken's place due to Tracy's deceit during divorce proceedings. Ty reluctantly agrees but Fiz is none too thrilled especially with all the 'snogging Olympics' going on whenever Steve and Cassie are within tongue-distance.
At Kev's garage, Kev is busy fixing cars while Abi and Carl are setting up legover dates but they have to be careful because Ty and/or Kev might spot them together. You think Kev might be tipped off when Abi shows up at the garage looking super-glam instead of wearing greasy overalls.
George's first internet date falls flat when his mystery match turns out to be an old school friend of Glenda's. However Jenny seems interested in George although she won't admit it.
Over at their new house (Yasmeen's old house), Carla and Lisa (and Ryan and Betsy) are settling in and Carla has plans to propose to Lisa. Will Peter be invited to the wedding?
And now a few lines from the week that was:
Todd can't believe that Gary was sensitive about Theo's angry outburst:
"Gary Windass? The walking testosterone molecule?"
(he can be quite sensitive.. when he's not beating up people)
Gary to Theo re: his plan to punish Noah:
"I know what I'm doing"
(No he doesn't)
"I'm not a caveman"
(Yes he is)
Kev to Abi (who says she has a migraine):
"Go home. Get yourself tucked up in bed"
(with Carl)
Brian opines on mortality:
"In the midst of life we are in death"
(sounds like he was at the 'Dog and Gun' recently)
Fiz can't stand Steve and Cassie's persistent mouth-to-mouth non-resuscitation:
"Any more tonsil tennis from them..I swear"
(the phrase 'get a room' springs to mind... if only Steve could find one)
"Looks like the untameable has been tamed"
(Quick, call David Attenborough. This could be a new documentary)
Bernie vows that she and Dev will never be normal:
"What is normal? It's a just cycle in the washing machine"
(although 'delicate' might be a better option)
Jenny to George:
"I've never had anyone fix my leaky o-ring before"
(it usually requires a medical professional)
"I am not interested in Eileen Grimshaw's sloppy seconds"
(neither was Eileen, it seems)
***
Well, fellow Dev-otees (and Detractors), so ends another week. Looks like Aadi just can't catch a break. Poor fella seems destined to be shipped off to Mumbai. As for Theo, that eerie smile gives me the creeps - Todd should be careful. Thanks so much for stopping by and spending time at the Hip. All the best and have a great week!
